unable to reproduce try doing `crossdev -C mingw32` before `crossdev mingw32`
crossdev -C mingw32 crossdev mingw32 works I should point out that I wasn't running crossdev the first time, portage was pulling in the gcc.
i really dont see how portage could pull in cross-mingw32/gcc since it is only created by crossdev and ebuilds cannot DEPEND/RDEPEND on it
Sorry, I wasn't clear. I ran crossdev some time ago. I added the cross-mingw packages to world to stop them being removed by depclean. New version, portage pulls in the update.
